Boulevard Court
Boulevard Court Apartments Fact Sheet Description Boulevard Court is the adaptive re-use of an existing two story motel into 37 studio and 37 one bedroom apartment homes for disabled formerly homeless individuals. There is an additional apartment reserved for staff. The motel was a blighted, historically crime-ridden property and a nuisance for the community. The conversion of the motel is part of the Sacramento Housing Redevelopment Agency’s proposed five year redevelopment program to reuse/convert obsolete motels, attract high quality design, decrease high crime rates, and increase economic viability in the Stockton Blvd. corridor. In addition to a variety of sustainable features incorporated into the property, approximately 75% of the entire development’s electricity use will be provided by a roof-mounted solar panel system. Within the newly built 1500 square foot multipurpose community building, residents and staff will have access to an ideal setting for indoor and outdoor community events, social services activities, and recreation. Construction began in March 2010 and was completed in May 2011.
